I use Netflix, I got away from them for a while and used Blockbuster because of how many of my movies were on 'long wait' but BB had them right away. BB is very slow compared to Netflix, an additional day of shipping on either end of every movie. That basically cuts the number of movies you get in a month in half.

As for their pop-ups on other sites, I've never seen any, but I use Firefox with an adblock extension, so I rarely see popups anyways. If you're using Internet Explorer and get popups, I would highly recommend you try Firefox. Actually, I'd recommend it even if you don't.

I already use FF and the netflix ones are really the ones that get through. I just added the adblock plus to FF and hopefully that will help.

I know I've mentioned it before, but my major complaint is that the Netflix movie summaries can be misleading.  Other than that Netflix is my BFF.

I hated going to the video store, there was a mean lady that used to call my mom when I wanted to rent rated R movies when I was 19.  And going to the video store requires leaving the house and social interaction - ew.

Yeah, thats true... I hated that, just because they're so old they can't tell the difference between young adults and teens we have to be carded... lame.

I got carded almost every time I bought a DVD at Wal-Mart during the four years I was at college (small college town, the only store to get anything at was a nearby Wal-Mart) -- Clint Eastwood DVDs, horror movies with an R rating...unless I hadn't shaved that day.  If I was stubbly, I didn't get carded. 


I've been using Netflix for a couple years now, my one complaint was when I was at school and using it, my DVDs would often get stuck in the wrong mailbox and I wouldn't get them.

I don't have one personally, as I have never used them, but when "Consumer Reports," the consumer magazine, did a survey of places, where you can rent dvds, Netflix was #1 on their list. You can make of that what you will.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
